Abstract

Excavation in soft soil significantly affects stress-strain behaviour and pore water pressure, influencing overall stability. However, previous studies have primarily focused on excavation stability in moderate soil conditions, with limited analysis of highly saturated soft clay environments. This study addresses the gap by analyzing the stability of basement excavation walls in Surabaya’s highly saturated soft clay (NSPT = 1) under undrained (short-term) and drained (long-term) conditions. The objective is to evaluate the impact of pore water pressure dissipation on excavation stability and compare safety factors over time. A numerical analysis was conducted using the Finite Element Method (FEM) in PLAXIS 2D with the Hardening Soil (HS) model. The excavation, staged in 2-meter increments to a depth of 10 meters, is supported by a 25-meter-deep secant pile wall with horizontal struts. The analysis shows that the Safety Factor (SF) remains within acceptable limits throughout all excavation stages. However, under drained conditions, the SF decreases over time due to pore water pressure dissipation, highlighting the importance of long-term stability assessments. Practical recommendations include optimizing strut placement, increasing secant pile depth, and applying soil improvement techniques to maintain excavation safety. The study emphasizes the necessity of Effective Stress Analysis (ESA) in capturing long-term behaviour, ensuring reliable and safe geotechnical design in soft soil environments.

Abstract

This study presented a comprehensive life cycle assessment (LCA) of sustainable building materials within the Nigerian construction industry, focusing on bamboo, recycled steel, and low-carbon concrete. The research aimed to evaluate the environmental impacts of these materials across all stages of their life cycles, from raw material extraction to end-of-life disposal. A mixed-methods approach was employed, with primary data gathered through interviews and surveys with industry professionals, while secondary data was obtained from reputable databases and literature. The results indicated that bamboo was the most environmentally friendly material, exhibiting the lowest global warming potential, ozone depletion, eutrophication, and resource depletion impacts. Low-carbon concrete also demonstrated significant environmental benefits, particularly in reducing greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional concrete. Recycled steel, while advantageous in promoting the circular economy, incurred higher energy consumption and emissions due to the energy-intensive recycling process. The study identified several barriers to the widespread adoption of sustainable materials in Nigeria, including high initial costs, limited availability, and a lack of regulatory support. To address these challenges, the research suggested strengthening regulatory frameworks, providing financial incentives, enhancing local production capabilities, and increasing awareness through education and training programs. The findings underscored the potential of sustainable materials to reduce the environmental footprint of construction activities in Nigeria, highlighting the need for coordinated efforts to promote their adoption. This study contributed valuable insights to policymakers, industry stakeholders, and researchers focused on advancing sustainability in the built environment.

Abstract

One of the busiest locations of Bukittinggi is the Jam Gadang region, which is distinguished by land use areas that are mostly used for trade, services, and tourism. This area's level of appeal is not directly correlated with the amount of urban infrastructure, such as pedestrian walkways, which are abused by shopkeepers or street vendors who set up shop along them and by motorized vehicle users who park illegally on them, endangering the safety of both pedestrians and vehicle users.  This study aims to examine the factors of familiarity and warmth in the Jam Gadang area. The warmth component is analyzed by determining the distinctiveness of the Jam Gadang area through its physical, social, and historical appeal. The familiarity component is examined by considering the features and effectiveness of on-street parking in the Jam Gadang area, as well as the number of public transportation options available. While the familiarity aspect of on-street parking will be studied using Important Performance Analysis (IPA) to assess service performance, and then followed by Quality Function Deployment (QFD) analysis to determine the priority of enhancing on-street parking performance, the warmth aspect will be analyzed using descriptive analysis. Frequency distribution analysis will be used to examine the familiarity factor of interacting public transportation users. The findings demonstrate the importance of managing the pedestrian path in the Jam Gadang area by incorporating the Omotenashi concept, which emphasizes familiarity and warmth. Physical attractiveness is highest on Ahmad Yani street, which has a total attractiveness value of 93, is characterized by the variety of building functions on this road.

Abstract

The flooding phenomenon in the Prima Street area is due to a lack of facilities, sub-optimal drainage channel conditions, bottlenecks, and elevation differences in the Box Culvert. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the storage capacity of the existing channel along Prima Street toward Sungai Buun and provide recommendations. The measurement results show that the elevation difference in the drainage channel with the Prima Street box culvert is ± 1.39 meters. The evaluation results show that the storage capacity of the existing channel on Prima Street (point 2) of 0.372 m³/s is smaller than the flood discharge of 0.490 m³/s. Flooding also often occurs in the channel behind Rocket Chicken (point 3) because the channel storage capacity is smaller than the flood discharge of 1.723 m³/s and 2.213 m³/s, respectively. There are three alternative solutions. The first alternative plans the drainage channel at point 2, with the base width (B) and top width of the channel (T) of 1.715 meters, channel depth (h) of 1.286 meters, normal depth of 0.857 meters, and accommodated discharge of 0.735 m³/s. Furthermore, the design flood discharge for a 5-year return period is 0.490 m³/s. The second alternative plans the drainage channel at point 3, cross section of the base width (B) and top width of the channel (T) 1.847 meters, channel depth (h) 1.386 meters, and normal depth at an elevation of 0.924 meters. The third alternative readjusts the base elevation of the Box Culvert to an elevation of ± 1.39 meters.

Abstract

The transportation dynamics between Malang and Blitar, characterized by significant student and worker mobility, present a complex decision-making landscape for public transportation mode selection. This study employed binary logistic regression to analyze factors influencing passenger choices between trains and buses, utilizing a comprehensive survey of 100 respondents. The research revealed convenience as the most statistically significant factor in transportation mode selection, transcending traditional considerations such as ticket pricing. Despite 80 participants initially expressing a preference for trains, the predictive model suggested a potential scenario where 74% might ultimately choose buses. This counterintuitive finding highlights accessibility, service frequency, boarding ease, and overall travel comfort in transportation decision-making. By quantifying the probabilistic relationships between various variables, the study provides transportation planners with a sophisticated analytical tool for understanding passenger behavior. The findings underscore passengers' willingness to pay a premium for transportation modes offering greater flexibility and comfort, challenging conventional assumptions about cost-driven travel choices. The binary logistic regression model's insights provide valuable guidance for infrastructure development and service optimization in the Malang-Blitar transportation corridor, emphasizing the critical role of convenience in shaping transportation preferences.

Abstract

Subsea pipelines are critical in supporting offshore oil and gas activities, yet they are vulnerable to hazards such as leaks caused by navigation activities. Regular monitoring is essential to reduce associated risks, and multibeam echosounder (MBES) data offer a promising solution for identifying subsea infrastructure. This research presents an object-based interpretation approach for detecting subsea pipelines using MBES data, incorporating interpretation elements such as tone and color, texture, shape, pattern, size, shadow, and site. The research was conducted in the Bawean Sea, East Java, using raw MBES data, vessel offsets, patch test calibration, a sound velocity profiler (SVP), and tidal data. The seafloor topography in the study area is generally flat, ranging from 52.5 to 60.2 meters in depth. Six subsea pipeline objects were identified based on their linear pattern, shallow placement, consistent shape, and spatial context. However, the absence of visible shadow elements—possibly due to sonar resolution, depth, or beam angle limitations—represents a methodological constraint. The study points out the advantages of MBES data combined with object interpretation criteria for non-invasive and efficient subsea pipeline monitoring.

Abstract

This study develops a tailored sustainability assessment framework for Nigerian mega projects. The framework is applied to four diverse case studies: a highway expansion, an airport terminal, a renewable energy project, and a residential housing development. Results show that the renewable energy project achieved the highest sustainability score due to its superior environmental and economic performance. In contrast, the highway expansion project ranked the lowest, primarily because of its significant environmental impact and limited community engagement. Key findings emphasize the critical role of community engagement and lifecycle costing in achieving sustainable outcomes. Projects that incorporated inclusive planning and long-term financial strategies performed better overall. However, the study also identifies significant barriers, including weak regulatory enforcement and monetary limitations, which restrict the adoption of sustainable construction practices. The research highlights the need for localized sustainability frameworks in developing countries, as international models like LEED and BREEAM may not fully address context-specific challenges. This framework provides a valuable tool for policymakers, project managers, and stakeholders to enhance sustainability in large-scale infrastructure projects and support long-term development objectives.

Abstract

Biophilic design has gained prominence in environmental psychology and architectural studies for its potential to improve human well-being and behavioral outcomes. However, limited research has examined how visitors’ awareness and understanding of biophilic elements influence behavioral intentions in commercial open-air environments. This study aims to analyze the effect of visitors’ knowledge of biophilic design on revisit intention at The Breeze BSD City, Tangerang, Indonesia, an open-air shopping center in Tangerang, Indonesia that incorporates nature-based features. Using a quantitative approach, the study surveyed 100 respondents and analyzed the data using simple linear regression. The results reveal a significant, positive relationship, with an R² of 38.8%, indicating that visitors’ knowledge explains a substantial portion of the variance in revisit intention. These findings highlight the importance of cognitive engagement with environmental design, suggesting that increasing visitor awareness of biophilic features can foster greater loyalty and repeat visits. The study contributes to the growing body of literature on biophilic design by emphasizing the role of user knowledge as a key psychological factor influencing place attachment and return behavior in urban commercial settings.

Abstract

Bullying remains a critical issue in Indonesian schools, with spatial environments often influencing its occurrence. This study investigates the spatial distribution of bullying incidents across two public junior high schools in Malang City by using map-based surveys and spatial analysis. Data were collected through student questionnaires that identified bullying experiences and locations, followed by Kernel Density Estimation (KDE) using ArcGIS to identify bullying hotspots. The findings reveal that bullying is not randomly distributed but clusters in specific school areas such as classrooms, corridors, staircases, toilets, canteens, sports fields, and mosques. Physical bullying was more frequent in secluded, less supervised zones, while psychological bullying was concentrated in classrooms and semi-public social spaces. The study emphasizes the importance of spatial characteristics and supervision in shaping bullying patterns. It concludes that KDE is a valuable tool for informing design strategies and preventive interventions to create safer, more inclusive school-built environments.

Abstract

Tambakrejo Village, located on the southern coast of Blitar, is highly vulnerable to tsunamis. The research utilizes the Integrated Concept of Community Resilience (ICCR) framework, incorporating both internal factors, such as social, economic, and cultural capital, and external factors like disaster risk governance and disaster-based spatial planning, to assess the resilience of the community. Primary data was gathered through interviews, questionnaires, and field observations, complemented by secondary data from BPBD and BPS. The analysis, based on the ICCR framework, revealed that the community resilience in Tambakrejo is at a medium level (ICCR score ranging from 30 to 60) in Social, Economic, and Cultural Capital (SCE = 56.35) and Disaster-Based Spatial Planning (DBSP = 47.22), and a high level (score above 60) in Disaster Risk Governance (DRG = 63.49). Key findings include a lack of detailed disaster risk maps and limited mitigation infrastructure, which hinder effective disaster preparedness. However, the community shows strong potential in social cohesion and culture, with active participation in disaster risk reduction activities and a high level of awareness regarding tsunami threats. This research underscores the need for sustainable economic diversification, improved evacuation infrastructure, and better integration of spatial planning in disaster mitigation efforts including capacity-building training for local disaster response teams, community workshops on risk mapping and evacuation route planning, and the development of alternative livelihoods beyond the fisheries sector to further increase community resilience against tsunami threats.
